Announcement regarding the establishment of a subsidiary company in the Republic of the Union of Myanmar
Asia Air Survey Co., Ltd., (Head office: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; President and Representative Director Kiichiro Ogawa) is announcing the establishment of a 100%-funded subsidiary company in the Republic of the Union of Myanmar (referred to below as Myanmar).
1. Purpose in establishing the subsidiary
Having been granted a provisional business operations approval by the Directorate of Investment and Company Administration of Myanmar (DICA) on September 9th, 2013, Asia Air Survey will be establishing a new company in Myanmar on October 1st, 2013; this company will be Asia Air Survey’s first overseas subsidiary.
Asia Air Survey is reinforcing its offshore business in line with its medium-term management plan; hitherto, the company has looked on Africa and the countries of ASEAN as markets to which the company is committed, and has concentrated on the development of business in these areas. In addition, the government of Japan has stepped up its support for the export of infrastructure systems; and in this context, Asia Air Survey intends through the establishment of this new company to exploit the increasing demand for development projects in Myanmar. Such projects focus mainly on the infrastructure development projects that make optimum use of the technologies that are Asia Air Survey’s forte, i.e., in the fields of the environment and disaster prevention, survey work as well as GIS technology, etc., and to take a constructive approach to projects in the ASEAN area.
Asia Air Survey is aiming for growth in its overseas business operations amounting to 1.5 – 2 billion.
